3rd Time Lucky Club

[Amos2009]

Thanks Sassy...I remember you as well. So glad we are back in the saddle again Praying this will be our sticky bean

My DH and I agreed that we would not tell his daughter until we knew for sure things were ok- well, I wake up this morning and he already told her. Explained to her that I would be lying around and taking it easy for a few months and that hopefull "if things go ok" (Lol78-there's that phrase) that she would have a baby brother or sister in October. I could have killed him, but she has been really good today so maybe it will be alright.

Poshie- I think that's a great idea. If others are like me, you can't remember crap from one day to the next so a list would definitely help me!

Amos! I am so so pleased for you darling! Sending you loads of and sticky

Sassy, good luck testing!

Samzi - not long to go now chicki! So excited for you!

Poshie - That sounds like an excellent idea

Huge to everyone I am pretty good, I know the next few weeks are going to be very tough, especially as I lost Edan at 10weeks, but trying to keep my chin up

Todays clearblue test say "not pregnant" so looks like 3rd time was not so lucky for me. I cannot believe its happening again! Good Luck to the rest of you.xxx

OMG NO!! I can't believe this is happening. I'm so sorry I wish there was something else I could say. We're here for you but I know we may not be the best people.

hope its just a dodgy test

 

[Lol78]

hope its just a dodgy test

Yes, let's hope that's the case.

 

[Sassy_TTC]

I done a superdrug test at the same time and thats a definate BFP but I know its alot more sensitive than Clearblue so my levels have obvioulsy not dropped completley yet, no spotting yet but I dont have back ache so just a matter of time now.xx

 

[MissyMojo]

aww sassy

 

[OmiOmen]

Aww, Sassy I hope it was just a bad test. I got mixed results the second time (not just one negative I should add) and they all seemed to come back negative at the doctors office but they said they they are the more reliable ones than the home ones and that if it had of come back with a BFP at their office I would have got an early scan. Maybe you should call and make an appointment at your GP's for as soon as you can get there? Fingers crossed for you.

 

[Sassy_TTC]

I'm going to see my doctor first thing on the morning so I will let you know how I get on.xx

 

[OmiOmen]

Good luck. This time I used some that show lines and thought the first 2-3 were evaporation lines and then the next few weeks the lines went from dark to light, to dark again so it may just be like that for you. I hope that your test was just a bit less sensitive than the last ones or the time of day was not ideal.

 

[Lol78]

Sassy, do you have any idea when you ovulated? I think I read on one of your posts elsewhere that you miscarried on 28th December. So even if your HCG dropped immediately and you ovulated say 2 weeks later, lets say 11th Jan then you still wouldn't even be 14 dpo. And in all likelihood, you probably ovulated a bit later, so you are likely to be even earlier than that. I'm not trying to get your hopes up, but this is what happened to me this month. I didn't get a good postive until I was about 4+4 or more. This was actually about 5 weeks after my miscarriage because I had ovulated later in the cycle. At the same stage as you are at, my tests were still really faint - even the one I did at the doctors. It actually wasn't until I was about 6 weeks that got a dark line, as dark as the control line (although I didn't test between 4+4 and 6 weeks).
You could ask the doctor for an HCG blood test to see if HCG is rising but their urine tests probably won't tell you much more than your home tests - in fact less because the nurses who did my test didn't know what it meant when it was so faint - they didn't know if that meant positive or not -grrrr. Considering your history, I think this would be more than appropriate to put your mind at rest.

Good luck.

 

[Poshie]

Sorry to hear this Sassy. Lol is right though and went through all sorts of am I aren't I days. I think a blood test hcg could be the way forward. It could be too early. Please don't give up hope yet

 

[beachlover1]

Sassy, im really sorry to hear this...and lets just hope yr too early! my sister and friend kept getting negatives til they were SEVEN weeks!!! so it is possible.

Let us know how you get on at the docs, but as yr still early I would ask for the BHCG bloods to be done.....their wee wee dip stick is less sensitive than most of our home ones!!

How are all you others today? xx

 

[samzi]

been getting lovely stabbing pains in my cervix this afternoon, very nice indeed! not not pleasant at all

 

[Sassy_TTC]

Thanks girls, I think I'm about 16DPO now, I'm going for a blood test first thing tomorrow so will let you know what my results are. I'm just so doubtful after seeing those horrible words "not pregnant"!!! I have loads of EWCM aswell which is completely confusing me, prehaps I was never pregnant and I'm ovulated? Oh know I think I'm going crazy!xx

 

[Lol78]

Sassy, try not to worry too much. You can't change what is going to happen (I can dish it out, but I certainly can't take my own advice!). I hope the tests can shed some light on it and in a positive way They are really quick too so you should know quite soon. We will be thinking of you.

Ooh Samzi, do you think things are getting started? I'm so excited for you!!

Hiya beachlover!
I'm doing OK. Feeling more than a wee bit pukey today, so I'm hoping that's a good sign. Absolutely refusing to venture into miscarriage support so I don't scare myself again. Just having a chill out day, getting the washing done, etc. It's a glamorous life I lead!

How's everyone else doing?

 

[Sassy_TTC]

Today's superdrug test compared to Fridays just for comparison.

The top is Fridays, bottom is today!

 

[Lol78]

Wait for your blood test tomorrow. There are so many factors that come into play with the urine tests.

 

[OmiOmen]

I too don't want to raise hopes too much but it took me ages after "knowing" I was pregnant this time to get a BFP and then when I did I had all sorts of issues with the lighter and darker lines and they were using the same brand (and batch) of tests at a similar time of day, so it can happen and be fine. I just really, really hope that you get some good results tomorrow.

Samzi, do you think the time is really near?
